Name plate case reaches Supreme Court, hearing on petition against Yogi government’s decision tomorrow
The matter of installing name plates outside food shops on the Kanwar Yatra route in Uttar Pradesh has now reached the Supreme Court. The Supreme Court will hear this matter on Monday (July 22). An NGO named Association for Protection of Civil Rights had filed a petition challenging this matter in the Supreme Court, which has been listed for hearing.
It is believed that on July 22, a bench of Supreme Court Justices Rishikesh Roy and SVN Bhatti may give a big decision while hearing this controversial matter. The important thing is that in the petition filed on Saturday (July 20), the Association for Protection of Civil Rights NGO has demanded the cancellation of the name plate order of the Yogi government.
The issue was also raised in the all-party meeting
Before the budget session of Parliament, on Sunday (July 21), the government called an all-party meeting in which the issue of name plate was raised. Gaurav Gogoi from Congress, Sanjay Singh from Aam Aadmi Party, Ram Gopal Yadav from Samajwadi Party, Asaduddin Owaisi from AIMIM and leaders of many other political parties including Left parties raised the Yogi government’s decision to install ‘name plates’ during the Kanwar Yatra in the meeting. After coming out of the all-party meeting, NCP (Ajit Pawar) faction MP Praful Patel, while talking to the media, demanded the Yogi Adityanath government of Uttar Pradesh to withdraw the decision taken regarding ‘name plates’.
Parties included in NDA are opposing
NDA allies have also opposed the Yogi government’s order to write the names of shopkeepers on the Kanwar route. Union Minister Chirag Paswan, JDU leader KC Tyagi and Rashtriya Lok Dal chief Jayant Chaudhary are also among those protesting. Jayant Chaudhary, while talking to the media on Sunday (July 21), criticized the order of name plates. Jayant Chaudhary said, this matter should not be linked to religion and politics because the person carrying the Kaanvad or the sevadaar has no identity. He asked that if everyone is writing their names on their shops, then what will Burger King and McDonald’s write?
